Questions:
Can I donate clothing?
Yes! We are accepting clothing donations from all students. You can bring your donation into the Women’s Center from November 9th-17th, between the hours of 11am-5pm (4pm on Friday). Please wash clothing before donating, and only bring clothes in good condition.
Do I have to be a Spectrum member?
Nope! Spectrum is an open community discussion group, and there is no registration or sign up to participate in the clothing swap or discussion group. If you are interested in staying up to date with Spectrum, please email womenscenter@umbc.edu to be added to our mailing list.
Do I have to stay the whole time?
Nope! You can come for just the clothing swap, just the discussion group, or a little of both.
Do I need to bring anything?
If you are participating in the Spectrum discussion group, you may want to bring a device you can access the internet on for this session's special moodboard activity, like a laptop or smartphone. Contact us at womenscenter@umbc.edu if this is a concern.
The Spectrum Discussion Group makes space for UMBC community members who identify as trans, genderqueer, gender fluid, outside of the gender binary, and/or those who are questioning their gender identity.
Fall 2022: We meet on Thursdays at 1pm in the Women's Center Lounge!
If you have any questions, concerns, or want to know more about the group, email us at womenscenter@umbc.edu.
